Movement for Justice in El Barrio is an immigrant- and people
of color-led, grassroots community organization that fights
for dignity and against neoliberal displacement from East
Harlem to Chiapas and beyond. For seven years, Movement has
built a 700-member-strong, local movement for dignified housing
and justice that has taken on and defeated greedy slumlords,
corrupt politicians, and multi-national corporations.
Committed to the principles of autonomy and self-determination,
Movement practices participatory democracy and horizontal
decision-making in its organizing campaigns, and as part of
Zapatista-initiated The Other Campaign, fights to build true
community power and liberation from below and to
the left. For more information, contact
